Next message: Peter Ogilvie: "Re: [world-cruising] cabin stepped mast"
Thanks for all of the immediate answers to my question related to the
Tayana with the cabin stepped mast. The reason I used the term 'cabin
stepped' rather than 'deck stepped', is that is how the particular
boat is advertised. The comments are very interesting. As I studied for
my offshore certification, one comment was "don't go blue water with a
deck stepped mast, so it was good to see all the responses. As to the
Tayana not being blue water capable, that was not the question, the
deck stepped mast vs keel stepped was. As a newbie sailor, vs 40 yrs on
the water under power, this group is great.
